Jeremiah 4:14: Cannot wash my heart
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 10 (1871)
Religion
Cannot wash my heart.
But by believing Thee,
And waiting for Thy blood to' impart
The spotless purity:
While at Thy cross I lie,
Jesus, the grace bestow.
Now Thine all-cleansing blood apply.
And I am white as snow.
